Bluestreak Sessions 9 & 10: Score!

I’ve been behind on the blogging this week simply because there is so much going on in my life. But Bluestreak this week was good. We were off on Monday for the holiday, so we started the week on Wednesday with plyometrics. The routines keep getting harder, but I’m still enjoying the bouncing. I’ve got [...]

Shopping…

We made a quick excursion over to Century 21 this afternoon to pick up a couple things, and who did we see while we were there? Queer Eye‘s Carson Kressley was in the men’s underwear section.

Xanadu on Broadway…Seriously… Awesome!

Kerry Butler played a great Kira, at times positively channeling (or [...]

This week it was more than bouncing on numbers too, I got to hop on colored squares. I was doing scissors across the different colors–the red squares, blue [...]
